Andy P

D.O.B. 28 November 2013

Sire: JOY's Moondance

Dam: Donkey Magic Annabelle

We are so grateful to our dear friend Hilary for giving Annabelle back to us as her mother Taranganbar Maisie was a favourite and we only had her one daughter Marquasite to remember her by. It is lovely to see Anabel produce this sweet brown and white boy - he is straight and true with a lovely temperament and will be available as a gelding as he is weaned in March 2014.

JOY's KitKat

50% AMMD jenny

D.O.B. 28 November 20113

Sire: GM Conrad's In Black and White

Dam: Taranganbar Sedona Kahlua

This spectacularly marked and well put together jenny is a joy to the eye and with her lovely black nose (that will darken as she matures) she, like her full brother, has the traits we are seeking to replicate. KitKat will be retained in our breeding program.

JOY's Stuart Little

100% AAMD white and brown jack

Sire: JOY's Verdi

Dam: Sweet Thing (imp. USA)

Wow what a stunner! Verdi's first foal is a very very nice boy. He has colour, compact conformation, lovely straight legs - and his mother's very outgoing personality. He is truly stunning, and if Verdi's other foals are as good as Stuart Little then all of the time and effort, many years in the making have had a wonderful result.

JOY's Cousin Audrey

100% AAMD black jenny

Sire: JOY's Flashback

Dam: Chateau's Milenium. special Angel

My Dad named this little cutie. Angel has given us so many lovely girls - Lady Penelope, Princess Grace, Angelica and now Audrey - all are outstanding girls - Angel consistently throws stocky strong girls with personality plus - I am sure this little girl will be no exception!

Dam: Fisher's Ermestine's Verle

We are thrilled with this robust, solid little guy - another outstanding foal from Verle and the last from the four jennies we imported in foal. Huge thanks to Karen and Peter in Canada who worked tirelessly and without whom Charlemagne, Sierra, Nemo and Valentine would not be here. Valentine is absolutely gorgeous with an already extremely friendly and relaxed temperament, and will become another perspective herd shire at JOY Miniature Donkey Stud.

Sire: JOY's Flashback

Dam: Chateau's Millenium Angel

Angel has done it again! Angelica is a superior quality jenny foal like her sister Lady Penelope - one of our very best girls. Angelica is Angel's first NLP foal proving that she carries the gene recessively. Flashback has also proven himself this season with consistently well-conformed foals.

JOY's Charlemagne

100% AMMD Black NLP jack

D.O.B. 04 October 2012

Sire: Fisher's Rastus

Dam: Secret Charm (imp. USA)

This little guy was born while I was overseas and thankfully arrived safe and sound. Charm is a very protective and caring mother and her little boy is everything we hoped for in this mating.

JOY's Porsche

50% AMMD roan jenny

D.O.B. 17 December 2012

Sire: Chateau's Country Cassanova

Dam: JOY's Penny

Posche is an unusual roan - I have never had a foal this colour before. Brown with specks of Penny's ginger, the photo does not demonstrate her almost cherry-colour. Penny (pictured standing behind her foal) was dark brown when she was born and is slowly turning white so perhaps Porsche will do the same. She has captured all our hearts as she is particularly affectionate and approaches all visitors with confidence. She has harm and grace and we love her to bits - well done Penny!

JOY's Jasmine (7/8ths AMMD)

D.O.B. 10 September 2012

Sire: Chateau's Country Cassanova

Sire: GM Conrad's In Black And White

Dam: Taranganba Prunella

Prunella has done it again! Patricia is a stunning dark-spotted, small & square jenny with a sweet face and happy disposition. She is a great example of what we aim for in our breeding program and will be retained as a brooding jenny following her show career. Look out for her in the Canberra Show in 2013!

Foals 2010/2011 Season

JOY's Black Beauty (sold)

D.O.B. 17 June 2011

Sire: GM Conrad's In Black and White (imp. USA)

Dam: Donkey Magic Lyric

Beauty is just that! Her mother was a maiden and had a lot of trouble giving birth to Black Beauty. I had to pull her out, and it was so difficult I hurt my back. While I rolled around in agony Lyric decided that she would prefer to kill her foal that lick it dry, so I threw myself on top of little Black Beauty to protect her from her mother, and I do believe God was watching and took pity on us both because a few minutes later Lyric realised that what she had originally thought was a wet black alien predator was actually her beloved daughter, and she began licking and their bond was built.

So Black Beauty is special to me - if I had not been present at the birth I believe she would have died if not from being stuck at the shoulders, then from her poor mother's confusion about what she was. At moments like this everything can go wrong and if it doesn't that is a miracle - and we experienced one on that day!

Stunning black and white, and a very special boy as his mum has twice developed hyperlipidemia in late pregnancy, and we lost her last foal to it.
